I have been using the Demon DFax service for some time with only a few 
hiccups. Up to now I have used Netscape communicator, viewed the attachments
as links and then saved them out as TIFFs which can be opened with Graphic
Converter. For a variety of reasons I wanted to do the same with Outlook
Express but with no luck. I can download the files with no problem but
cannot open them. I have tried changing the helper configurations including
binary vs text". In each case although I can save an appropriately sized and
named file to the desktop with the CG icon, Graphic Converter claims it
cannot be opened. What gives? Any help gratefully received, Please reply
direct by email if possible as I do not always get to read this ng.
